The process of snow removal is very important for the safety of all of our Residents and the general motoring public. Our goal is to first clear one pass in each direction on each main road, then one pass in each direction on each secondary road. This is so that emergency services can get to you in the case of an emergency. Please realize that we will be back to open your roadway from edge of road to edge of road. We are not aiming to upset anyone by coming back after you have cleared the end of your driveway. We are just concerned with your safety. The operation is as followes:
- As soon as the snow begins to stick on the roads, our trucks will spread a mixture of salt and anti-skid material on the roadway.
- As soon as snow is three inches deep, and the snowfall is predicted to be six inches or more we will begin a plowing operation and will continuously plow until all roadways are clear. If it is predicted to be five inches or less we may choose to wait until the snow has stopped and then begin plowing operation

If you wait until the last pass of the snowplows before you shovel the end of your driveway, the plow will not have a space to empty its contents into your driveway.
If you must shovel the end of your driveway...shovel a large area in the direction that the plow would be coming from. This will allow the plow to empty most of the snow before it gets to your driveway.
